A Podcast Link is an easy way to share your podcast directly on your Linktree. With a Podcast Link, you can grow your audience by allowing visitors to hear a preview of your podcast episode, which can turn them into a follower of your show.
Similar to our Music Link feature, when you add your podcast URL, it'll display the different podcast platforms available for visitors to tune in and listen. You can also reorder the list to drive visitors to the preferred platforms of your choosing.
As a bonus, you can showcase your podcast brand by presenting your podcast's logo and description so that people can associate your brand with what they're listening to.
🔔 Note: This feature hasn’t reached the Linktree app just yet, but you can still add a Podcast Link through your web browser by following the steps.

How does it work?
When you paste a podcast URL our link detection system will search through our supported platforms and generate a list of all the platforms that we can find for the podcast. This list can be displayed directly on your Linktree.

Steps:
In your Linktree Admin, select the + Add link button.
Select View all to see our Link Apps and find Podcasts under the Connect your content section.
💡 Tip: You can also click Add to Linktree from the Linktree Marketplace.

Copy your podcast link URL and then paste your URL into the URL field.
A new Podcast Link thumbnail will appear below your link URL.
You can now choose Link behavior, to Display available podcast platform, Display Spotify audio preview, or display both. You may also choose Go directly to URL.
If you're posting an individual Podcast Episode, make sure Always use the latest episode is ticked if you would like your link to update automatically each time a new episode is released.
